Pen Fun Club www.mtlnovel.com, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the all-round athlete!

In China, the TV station did not broadcast this 100-meter sprint race. At the same time as this game, the table tennis women’s singles project is in the semi-finals. National hand Zhang Yining is playing against South Korea’s “world’s first chopper” Jin Jing’e. Needless to say, the status and popularity of table tennis in the country, compared with a track and field preliminary match, the television station naturally chooses to broadcast the game of table tennis.

The Japanese TV station broadcast the group stage of the Olympic 100-meter sprint.

The track and field atmosphere in Japan has always been relatively strong, and this time the three players of the Japanese team have great hopes to enter the next round, so the Japanese TV station chose to broadcast the group stage of the 100-meter sprint.

The end of the first group’s appearance, Shingo, has been successfully promoted, the fifth group’s Tujiang Kuanyu is in a pending state, and the sixth group’s Asahara Xuanji, as a veteran, is also quite expected by the Japanese audience.

On the TV screen, Xuanji Zhaoyuan and Polish Lucas Zila are running side by side, and the commentators are also generously explaining the game.

“Chaoyuan Xuanzhi and Zira are in no particular order, Chaoyuan Jun, come on! Come on! Now! At the same time, the line rushes, oh, no! It is Zhao Yuanjun leading. It must be Chao Yuan Jun in front!”

Along with the commentary’s words, the shot of the line just appeared on the screen of the hall test again. Although the gap between Xuanzhi Zhaoyuan and Zira is not big, it can be distinguished if you look carefully with the naked eye. Xuanzhi Zhaoyuan crossed the finish line first. of.

“Congratulations to Chao Yuanjun, he won the second place, and successfully entered the second round of the semi-finals. His result was 10.33 seconds! Polish player Lucas Zila finished third with a gap of 0.02 seconds. And Ben The first place in the group is Chinese player Zhang Guan. His result is… 9.96 seconds! A new Asian record is born!”

The commentator’s voice suddenly seemed excited: “9.96 seconds, this is the best result in the group stage and a new Asian record! The previous Asian record was 9.98 seconds, which was also created by Zhang Guan. Today, he will This result has improved by 0.02 seconds! According to the information in my hand, this is the third time he has run within 10 seconds this year! He is well-deservedly the first flying man in Asia!”

At this time, the shots of the Olympic broadcasters were all aimed at Zhang Guan, and the score of 9.96 seconds was also marked at the bottom of the screen, which is a new Asian record.

The message of breaking the Asian record flashed on the big screen in the stadium, and there was a short round of applause. Although Europeans are not interested in the Asian record, any new record is worthy of respect. The audience gave some Encouragement applause.

“How can I break the Asian record again!” Yu Guizhi looked a little trance, as if he had forgotten to celebrate.

When he was in the Philippines last year, Zhang Guan broke the Asian record, and he was not asleep for several days when he was excited. At the National Athletics Grand Prix half a month ago, Zhang Guan broke the Asian record again, and Yu Gui was also a happy night. Close your eyes; and today, Guidance suddenly found that he seemed less excited than before.

The next moment, Yu Guidang suddenly understood why he didn’t feel that excitement anymore.

“9.96, the new Asian record, unfortunately, this is the Olympics, but the 9.96 seconds result can’t even get a medal.” Yu Gui smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking secretly: “I’m too greedy to be It’s already good to enter the second round and break the Asian record. How dare you expect a medal!”

Since the domestic TV station did not broadcast the game, the reporter stationed in Athens by the TV station has been on the scene. Zhang Guan just entered the rest area and the reporter ran over.

“Zhang Guan, first of all congratulations on entering the second round and completing the historic breakthrough. How are you feeling now?”

“I feel pretty good.” Zhang Guan said with a smile.

“The result of 9 seconds and 96 has once again set a new Asian record that you have created yourself. You are still satisfied with this result!” The reporter then asked.

“After all, the opponents in the first round are not very strong. There is no need to run too fast.”

“So you still have reservations?” The reporter asked with some surprise. The reporter felt that at the level of Chinese athletes, the first game must be unreserved and full of effort, not to mention the Asian record of 9.96 seconds. It may be a reserved result.

Zhang Guan nodded: “That is of course, after all, there will be another game, so the first game will have to leave some effort.”

The reporter was stunned for a while, and said that the child would say big things all over again, but he still said: “Then I wish you a smooth promotion in the next game!”

The game continues, and the seventh group to play next is called the strongest group in the group stage and the most watched group. There are two big-name players in this group, the Jamaican flyer Asa-Powell and the British star Jason Gardner.

Zhang Guan continued to enjoy the next game through the TV in the rest area, and appeared on Powell, Zhang Guan would also choose to watch this game.

Powell is not yet the strongest sprinter in the world, but in the future, he will rule the entire 100-meter sprint. Since 2005, until the rise of Bolt in the 2008 Capital Olympics, Powell broke the world record twice in four years, winning dozens of 100-meter championships, and the honour is countless. If Bolt turned out, Powell would probably dominate the 100m for several years.

At this time, Powell can only be regarded as a rising star, far from reaching his best state, nor showing absolute dominance, but even so, Powell is still the top five hot players.

There was no upset in this group of matches, Powell easily won the first, British player Jason Gardner won the second. The top four players all finished within 10.30 seconds, and even the fifth place ran 10.32 seconds, so they had a great chance to enter the next round.

In the next eighth set of matches, the defending champion of the Olympic men’s 100m event, Morris Green, is about to debut.

Morris Green is the last American player to debut.

After all, Morris Green is not the top 100-meter runner in the United States. The top sprinter in the United States is Tim Montgomery, the world record holder. Montgomery has won multiple world championships since 2001, taking 9.78 seconds in 2002. Breaking the world record, Morris Green has been steady in the competition in recent years, but recently Montgomery’s girlfriend has been caught in a drug scandal and has not passed the domestic Olympic qualifier. And Montgomery’s girlfriend is the “Queen of Track and Field” Marion Jones.

In the same group as Morris Green was Jamaican Dwight Thomas, but at the Athens Olympics, Jamaicans were not as dominant as they were four years later, and their strength in the 100-meter sprint was obviously not as good as that of the Americans.

There was also no upset in this group of games. Defending champion Morris Green came first in the group and Jamaican Dwight Thomas took second place. It is worth mentioning that sprinters from Hong Kong, China also appeared in this group, but unfortunately only achieved a score of 10.70 seconds.

There are no well-known athletes in the ninth group of the preliminaries. Before the start of the match, it was considered to be the penultimate group. However, the ninth group of athletes played the level of the penultimate. The first place in this group only ran out of 10.39 seconds. If this result is placed in other groups, even the top five will not be able to enter. The third-ranked Kazakhstan player luckily entered the second round with a score of 10.43 seconds.

In the last group of games, last year’s 100m champion Kim Collins of the Paris World Championships debuted. Kim Collins ranked third in the world last year. Although this year’s ranking has dropped, it is still considered to be a player who has the strength to compete for medals.

In the game, Kim Collins really won the group first, and the strength of this group of athletes is also very strong. Five players all ran within 10.30 seconds.

The first round of the men’s 100-meter sprint of the Athens Olympic Games officially ended. In addition to the top three in the group, other athletes ranked in the top ten can also enter the next round, of which the tenth place is 10.34 seconds, which is almost the same as everyone predicted before the game.

After the game, the athletes who failed to enter the second round of the semi-finals can leave, and the athletes who entered the second round of the semi-finals will continue to wait because after a few hours, the second round of the 100-meter sprint will be held.

Chen Jian has changed his clothes, and then put the game uniform and nail shoes into the bag. He put the white number on the top. He looked at his number, and he was reluctant to zip up his travel bag for a long time.

Chen Jian’s Olympics are over. Now that he thinks about it, he feels a little regretful. If he can be faster just now, he may enter the second round. At this moment, he suddenly had an urge to cry. For him, running into the Olympic A-standard is already a very difficult thing. After four years, he is old and it is impossible to make the A-mark achievement, so This will be the only Olympics in his career. He doesn’t want his Olympics to end like this. He is not reconciled.

Not far away, Zhang Guan looked at Chen Jian. Zhang Guan wanted to go forward to comfort him, but he didn’t know how to do it.

Zhang Guan looked at Yu Gui beside him, and Yu Gui shook his head at Zhang Guan, and then pointed to the distance, instructing Zhang Guan to go aside first, not to disturb Chen Jian.

Indeed, in this situation, it may be the best way to calm down Chen Jian himself.

Looking at Chen Jian’s back, Zhang Guan once again felt the cruelty of competitive sports. In the Olympic Games, every athlete comes with a dream, but on this dream road, only a few people can reach the end, and others are destined to be eliminated.

“Since I have embarked on this path, then go to be the one who has reached the end!” Zhang Guan thought in silence.
